1. I Giorni E Gli Anni. 21 Agosto 1967 19 Dicembre 1967
21 Agosto 1967 19 Dicembre 1967
A fragmented, diary-like chronicle that follows an expatriate German woman living in New York as her everyday domestic details, memories of Germany and family, and the era’s public events and newspaper reports intermingle; presented through a collage of interior reflections, document-like fragments and reportage, the book meditates on exile, language, historical memory and the personal effects of political upheaval in the late-1960s.
